12 days ago RTL Today

Pedri Gonzalez's goal made the difference for Barcelona in a 1-0 win over Getafe on Sunday, moving them provisionally six points clear at the top of La Liga. Second place Real Madrid face Athletic Bilbao later Sunday and Barcelona increased the pressure on the champions, whom they also beat to win the Spanish Super Cup last weekend. "We didn't play well, we were sluggish, we didn't attack well," Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez told Movistar. "But we do take an important win, three points at home, and another clean sheet which is important too." The result leaves Getafe 16th, along with Celta Vigo and 18th place Real Valladolid on 17 points.

Latest tactic: Russia's 'no risk' Ukraine strategy: pummeling the power grid

After a series of humiliating battlefield defeats in Ukraine, Moscow is trying out a new tactic it hopes will swing the tide of the war: bombarding power stations just as winter sets in. "It's impossible to survive when there is no heating, no water, no water treatment facilities and no lights," pro-Kremlin lawmaker Andrey Gurulev said this week, after the latest barrage on power plants across Ukraine. Russia's pivot to systematically attacking Ukraine power stations comes after a series of defeats in Ukraine. According to some analysts, Russian munitions capable of accurately hitting power stations from a distance are running low. Back in Dnipro, Olga insisted that no matter how brutal the Russian strikes became, her resolve would not be shaken.

Jones vows England will 'go after' All Blacks

England coach Eddie Jones insisted defeating New Zealand was far from a "mission impossible" as he promised his side would "go after" the All Blacks following a 52-13 win over Japan at Twickenham on Saturday. That win meant England ended New Zealand's eight-year reign as world champions, but Jones's men then lost in the final to South Africa. New Zealand face Scotland in Edinburgh on Sunday before heading south to play England at Twickenham on November 19. "It's an opportunity to play against one of the giants of world rugby," Jones told reporters after the Japan match. "It's an improvement," said Jones after a match where both England centre Guy Porter and fly-half Marcus Smith scored two tries apiece.

Fears of escalation: UK sending heavy tanks to Ukraine, prompts Russian warning

British PM pledged to provide 14 Challenger 2 tanks to Ukraine, making it the first Western country to supply the heavy tanks Kyiv has been calling for. Ukraine's European allies have sent Kyiv more than 300 modernised Soviet tanks since Russia invaded in February 2022. But they have so far held off on dispatching the Western-made heavy tanks that Ukraine has repeatedly requested to push forward against Russian invaders. The issue of heavy tanks has long been a key one for Kyiv and many experts see providing Ukraine with modern tanks as a vital building block in its ability to win against Russia. Germany has been especially hesitant of supplying heavy tanks.

A second-half equaliser from RB Leipzig defender Marcel Halstenberg helped RB Leipzig hold Bayern Munich to a 1-1 home draw on Friday in the first Bundesliga match since the winter break.

Upamecano, one of four former Leipzig players in Bayern's squad along with manager Julian Nagelsmann, received a yellow card.

Remiro rocks boat as Madrid drop points in title race

Real Sociedad goalkeeper Alex Remiro made a string of fine saves to frustrate Real Madrid in a 0-0 draw Sunday, leaving Barcelona five points clear at the top of La Liga. After the Catalans beat Girona on Saturday Madrid needed to win to stay three points behind their rivals in the title race, but Remiro ensured otherwise, keeping third-place La Real on the champions' tail. Vinicius Junior had three good chances repelled by Remiro among other Madrid openings, as Carlo Ancelotti's side sparkled but failed to find the goal their performance deserved. "The players are starting to improve, the injured players (will return), so we are confident for the coming months, we can get stuck into it in the second half of the season." Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois was called into serious action for the first time after an hour when Takefusa Kubo broke free on the right, but the Belgian got down well to deny him.
